Reevaluate Your Liquidation Plan To Achieve Higher Recovery

By getting smart about the secondary market and looking beyond traditional liquidation methods for customer returns and other excess inventory – like selling offline to one or two buyers – you can create a sophisticated, scalable solution that optimizes your monetization of customer returns and other excess inventory. But what exactly does a successful solution look like?

B-Stock Solutions’ CEO Howard Rosenberg recently contributed an article to Inbound Logistics on the topic titled “Don’t Just Liquidate, Seek Scalable Solutions,” which included some best practices to help achieve maximum efficiency and return including:

Automate the process: a web-based solution makes it easier for thousands of buyers to compete for your inventory.

Target the right buyers: more buyers result in increased competition and higher prices, but having the “right buyers” can increase prices by triple digits.

Take control: retaining control over who is able to buy your returned and excess inventory, and how your brand enters the secondary market, is a must.

Establish a direct channel to buyers: selling directly to business buyers who will compete for your inventory with help drive prices up versus having a single buyer negotiate them down.
